I think Curie is great! Without organizations like Curie I think Steemit would have a serious new user retention problem. Like I mentioned in the past I would have left the site had I not found Curie and there are many more exactly like me.
There is a curation problem on the site in regards to the largest users voting for the same authors and the same content over and over. Look at the trending page every day as an example. Most days it is the same authors and 9 out of 10 posts are Steemit related. That in itself isn't awful but it is severely limiting the growth of the site in the long run. Curie has allowed for a greater diversity of content and a greater diversity of authors to be recognized and rewarded which is great for the long term growth of Steemit.
The more people that hear about Curie the better. Also the bigger Curie gets the better it will be as more and more people will feel like it is worthwhile to stay on the site as they are rewarded for their work.
My only advice would be to automate the post submissions so that posters will know immediately if their submission meets the guidelines. That would make life easier on everyone. Also get the finder fees set up on an automated system as well. I don't have the specifics on how to get those 2 things done as technology is not my strong suit but that would be my advice. :)
